Jewish Center To Be Built For Russian Winter Olympics

(IsraelNN.com) The 2014 Winter Olympics in Russia will include a new Jewish community center and synagogue. Host city Sochi's rabbi Ari Edelkopf is working with a government agency to prepare the center for the city.

Sochi, a city of 400,000 people, is located on the Black Sea. "We love Russia and the city in which we live, and bless the state corporation...for the accomplishment of all the tasks set forth by President Putin to continue  making this the best in the history of Olympic villages," the rabbi said.

In Russia, a Jewish Centre is just another place for Russians to wait outside to beat up Jews! >:(
